Belmond Palacio Nazarenas

Set in a tranquil plaza behind Cusco’s main square, the Belmond Palacio Nazarenas, a former palace, and convent, is now one of the city’s most exclusive hotels. Step past walls of Inca stones and into a cloistered courtyard with an ancient fountain at its heart. Then be surprised as contemporary Cusco comes to the fore: a fabulous spa, the city’s first heated outdoor pool, and stylish restaurants serving cutting-edge local cuisine.

You will also enjoy Belmond Palacio Nazarenas’ tranquil terraces and patios. Each landscaped with indigenous flowers and kitchen herbs. Fountains and flowing water channels echo the irrigation channels of the agricultural terraces found in the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu.

A nice surprise is the guest lounge which was a former chapel and now has been restored to showcase its beautiful gallery.
